Boot Camp is a time of training to prepare the teams for their respective mission fields. Over the first 10 days, team members and leaders participate in the Lord's Boot Camp, a program designed to build team unity and provide practical, physical, and spiritual training for their specific projects. We tailor each Boot Camp training according to the skills needed for each team. The 10 days primitive training will be at the Teen Missions base in Cooroibah, QLD.
A Commissioning Service will be held at the end of Boot Camp for all team members and leaders before flying out to their mission field.
To cap off the summer experience, teams will return to the Teen Missions base for a shared debrief time with other teams. The Debrief experience is essential to our summer team program for team members and leaders. During Debrief, the teams engage in different classes, allowing them to reflect on their summer and become equipped to take what they have learned on the mission field back home to their churches, youth groups, schools, and communities. In addition, we focus on fellowship, sharing summer experiences amongst the teams, and preparing them spiritually, mentally and emotionally for their return home.

This summer you will partner with the Teen Missions base in Malawi. Teen Missions in Malawi is located on 160 acres on the beautiful shores of Lake Malawi. Monkeys are a common sight and hippos are sometimes visible on the lake. The first Boot Camp was run in Malawi in 1988. Purchased in 1995, the base is home to three annual Boot Camps and a Bible, Missionary & Work (BMW) Training Center (which was founded in 1998). The base also hosts retreats to bring in extra income for its ministries. One of the most important ministries in Malawi is the ministry to the AIDS orphans. There are seven Rescue Units in Malawi and two Matrons Units that provide a safe place to stay for young girls who are attending school. The TMI staff also run a Sunday School Circuit, teaching Sunday schools at several Rescue Units and villages in the Dedza Region of the country.
